Your Help Matters

Your Help Matters

What do you want your donation dollars to accomplish? If you are like most people, you want to know that your donation directly impacts the lives of people who need it the most. Chances are, you feel best when you know those recipients are people close to you—your neighbors, or those you may encounter every day.

You can feel assured that the dollars you give to Mid-County United Ministries will go to directly to help your neighbors in need. We are a local non-profit, serving five zip codes in central Montgomery County, MD. We assist people who live and work in our neighborhoods, people who could be living and working close to you.

And the impact is direct. The food we distribute, the funds we use to prevent evictions, utility cutoffs and to provide medications are allocated to individuals and families who are in emergency situations. Rather than support permanent assistance, your dollars make a difference in assisting a family or individual until their situation improves. Your dollars help people from falling into deeper distress.

Lastly, many of us give because we want to experience appreciation, and we like to know that there are people who feel gratitude for what we have done. If you could see our client’s faces when an assistance check is written, you would see that often their gratitude is reflected by tears of joy and appreciation. You would see how your dollars have helped those around you.
